Something's wrong with my roommate

Chapter 383 The Adventures of Xu Fu

In the era of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, immortals once appeared in the Central Plains, leaving behind many legends and inheritances.

After some lucky ordinary people got the inheritance of immortals, they gradually developed into a profession that mastered supernatural powers and pursued immortality, called alchemists.

However, there are very few alchemists who have real skills, most of them are swindlers, and there are even many magicians pretending to be alchemists. Therefore, from the very beginning, alchemists have become a special profession that cannot be put on the stage.

Xu Fu was an alchemist in the pre-Qin period and also a cancer patient.

Of course, he didn't know that he was suffering from cancer until he lived to modern times, and he realized that he had an incurable disease shortly after the illness.

Relying on genuine alchemy, Xu Fu temporarily suppressed the cancer, and then began to travel the Central Plains, trying to find the relics of the immortals and obtain the inheritance of the immortals to get rid of his incurable disease.

It's a pity that he spent decades of hard work, but he couldn't find the inheritance of immortals. From the Three Emperors and Five Emperors to the present, most of the immortal relics have been patronized by countless alchemists, and even the floors have been dug up and returned home.

There are also some immortal relics that are too dangerous, and if you enter, you will die, without exception.

As a last resort, Xu Fu could only look overseas, wanting to find the legendary overseas fairy mountain, Penglai.

But he has no financial and material resources, and going to sea alone is tantamount to courting death.

Xu Fu did not give up, and has been accumulating financial resources and organizing people to go to sea. Although he failed many times over the years, it also allowed him to explore a safer sea route.

In the end, Xu Fu spent all his financial resources, bought a large boat, and took more than [-] people to sea. Unfortunately, he encountered a storm and the boat was destroyed. Only Xu Fu, who knew alchemy, escaped.

At this point, no one dared to go to sea with Xu Fu anymore, even if he promised a lot of money, he couldn't recruit people.

Just when Xu Fu was getting old and gradually unable to suppress his illness, Qin Shihuang unified the world and established a centralized dynasty. After a few years, he issued a decree to the whole world to recruit alchemists into Xianyang to refine immortality. medicine.

Seeing hope, Xu Fu obeyed the decree and entered Xianyang, defeated many magic sticks and liars through genuine alchemy, and successfully met Qin Shihuang.

Although Xu Fu is a real alchemist, he came this time because he was planning to be a liar.

He sold it to Qin Shihuang, saying that the overseas fairy mountains are the secluded places of immortals, and they must have the magic of immortality. Based on his many years of traveling in the Central Plains and his experience in going to sea many times, he fabricated a set of logically self-consistent and flawless stories. rhetoric.

Although Qin Shihuang was an outstanding man, he was completely a novice when it came to seeking immortals, and was easily persuaded by Xu Fu.

In fact, Qin Shihuang didn't have to believe Xu Fu, because there were eight hundred alchemists who entered Xianyang according to the decree, but they were all liars and magic sticks, and only Xu Fu had real materials.

It's not that Xu Fu is the only true alchemist in the world, but those true alchemists know that the elixir of life is nonsense, and even immortals are pursuing the way of eternal life. magic medicine.

Only Xu Fu dared to take this muddy water in order to go to sea.

After gaining the trust of Qin Shihuang, Xu Fu was afraid of being seen through, so he didn't dare to stay for a long time, and urged him to go to sea several times.

Qin Shihuang was also afraid of being delayed, so he ordered the formation of a fleet and collected boys and girls with the same birthday across the country.

In the end, Xu Fu got his wish and led an unprecedentedly large fleet and [-] boys and girls to sail to Yingzhou.

Qin Shihuang was still hoping that Xu Fu could find the elixir of immortality for him, but Xu Fu didn't care about immortality at all, he only cared about whether he could find immortal relics or reclusive immortals to cure his advanced illness.

This trip was very smooth, Xu Fu led the fleet successfully landed in Japan.

But Xu Fu was extremely disappointed when he saw Yingzhou, the legendary overseas fairy mountain.

At this moment, Japan has hundreds of countries, large and small, fighting each other, which is more chaotic than the Spring and Autumn and Warring States in the Central Plains.

But hundreds of countries are just a high EQ statement. In fact, they are hundreds of tribes, many of which don't even have pants.

Xu Fu couldn't imagine that the immortals would leave the prosperous land of the Central Plains and go overseas to be neighbors with such a group of savages.

If the officers and men on board hadn't been tired of life at sea, Xu Fu really wanted to turn around and leave Japan, the nest of savages.

With the thought that everything has come, Xu Fu settled down in Japan, and with no expectations, he sent people out to look for the immortal relics.

But he never expected that after searching, he actually found the entrance of Gao Tianyuan.

There really are immortals living next to a group of savages.

The ecstatic Xu Fu didn't have the taste to complain about Amaterasu, he directly left everyone and went into Gaotianyuan alone. After going through many hardships, he finally managed to meet Amaterasu.

At this time, Xu Fu was already in the late stage of cancer, and alchemy could no longer suppress the expansion of cancer cells. He looked haggard, and he was only a coffin away from dying.

Amaterasu is shocked by Xu Fu's strong will to survive, but she doesn't like to owe favors, no matter what she owes others or what others owe her, so she likes to trade in everything.

Amaterasu will save him unless Xu Fu has a big enough bargaining chip.

Xu Fu took out three things as trade items, a mirror, a piece of ancient jade, and a knife.

That's right, it is the three artifacts of Japan.

But these three artifacts are top-quality treasures seized from the collections of the Six Kingdoms after Qin Shihuang unified the world. They come from the remains of immortals and have mysterious powers.

In order to allow the immortals to bestow the elixir of life, Qin Shihuang reluctantly took out the three treasures as gifts to the immortals.

Amaterasu immediately fell in love with these three treasures. After accepting them, he not only cured Xu Fu's illness, but also gave him a life span of 3000 years.

Xu Fu was very grateful for this, and worshiped Amaterasu as his adoptive mother, but Amaterasu was noncommittal, neither refusing nor agreeing.

Afterwards, Xu Fu did not dare to return to the Central Plains, so he had to stay and settle in Japan.

He actually admired Qin Shihuang very much, so he also imitated Qin Shihuang and unified the whole of Japan.

The soldiers he brought dealt a dimensionality reduction blow to the savages on the Japanese islands, and soon annexed all the savage tribes and turned them into a unified country.

And Xu Fu himself proclaimed himself Emperor Jimmu, a descendant of Amaterasu, and then created history and mythology, respecting Amaterasu as the main god of Japan.

At that time, Amaterasu was an unnamed god, and Xu Fu picked up the name Amaterasu for his adoptive mother after searching through ancient books.

Under Xu Fu's governance, Japan entered the feudal system from the tribal system, and started the first step in history.

Hearing Xu Fu's story up to this point, Xu Cheng's expression was a little weird.

He had heard Amaterasu mention Xu Fu, but he only mentioned a few words. He never said that Xu Fu exchanged 3000 years of life from her with three artifacts.

Seeing Xu Cheng's expression, Xu Fu smiled gently: "You must be calling me ungrateful in your heart, right?"

Xu Cheng just wanted to say no, but it seemed too fake, so he could only reply: "A little bit, but not much."

Qin Shihuang gave him a fleet and manpower, and gave him gifts that could impress Amaterasu. As a result, he took away 3000 years of life, and made Brother Ying have to eat salted fish after his death. Isn't this ungrateful?
Amaterasu gave him so many years of life, and was worshiped by him as his foster mother, but he didn't show mercy when he stabbed him in the back. Isn't this ungrateful or what?
"Haha, it's more than a little bit. If what I did was recorded in the history books, I'm afraid there will be a place for me next to the bronze statue of Qin Hui."

Xu Fu laughed at himself: "I'm really sorry for Your Majesty, but in order to survive, I have to do this. I can't be too pedantic. As for my mother, I didn't feel sorry for her. It's just a reasonable counterattack. A little selfishness."

Xu Cheng wondered, "A reasonable counterattack?"

"That's right, although my mother has a benevolent personality, she has a disgusting shortcoming, that is, she has a strong desire to control."

With a gentle smile, Xu Fu uttered an astonishing sentence: "During the days when I became Emperor Jimmu, my mother has been quietly trying to control me, trying to completely turn me into hers."

Xu Cheng was shocked in his heart, and remembered the warning from the dog management, but he didn't expect Xu Fu to encounter it.

In the ten years since he became the Empress of Shenwutian, Xu Fu has worked hard to govern the entire country, and all the people have surrendered. Those soldiers who came to Japan with him have also become Japanese nobles, and no one opposes his status. .

But more than ten years later, Xu Fu began to neglect his administration.

On the one hand, there is not much population in Japan at this time, and there is little need for governance; on the other hand, it is because Xu Fu is not interested in government affairs at all, what he is really interested in is Xunxian Wendao.

So Xu Fu put down government affairs and began to practice alchemy again.

This practice made him realize that something was wrong. The life span that Amaterasu had given him turned into a plague-like force that began to erode his whole body, his brain and thoughts.

This made Xu Fu feel terrified, but he kept quiet and secretly released news about Gao Tianyuan, attracting more ordinary people to enter Gao Tianyuan to observe Amaterasu's actions.

Amaterasu drove away most ordinary people, but there were also a small number of talented humans who were left behind by her, and she gave them the power to become great priests.

Xu Fu observed secretly, and found that these great priests had completely turned into puppets and pawns of Amaterasu, almost without self at all.

This made Xu Fu break out in a cold sweat. Although he was grateful and respected Tianzhao, it didn't mean he was willing to become a puppet in her hands.

After spending several years in fear, Xu Fu found that Amaterasu's power was being eroded more and more seriously. He had to hand over the country to his descendants, and falsely told Amaterasu that he would return to the Central Plains to visit his relatives.

Amaterasu did not doubt that he was there, and agreed to Xu Fu's long trip. Who knew that Xu Fu would never return, and never returned to Japan for thousands of years.
